Re: regular expressions help

I will try to make it more clear.

1|2|3|this are is the text I want to display||a|b|||45.67|cd|don't
need this text
|||||||||||||||||||||||||| this text

I've tried some combinations of things to get exactly what I want, but
can't get it 100%.

([\w.]+\s*)?,?").Groups(1).ToString() only gets first item, number 1
in this case. I want the text "this are is the text I want to display"
and only that. The pattern is just like it is above, the first 3 are
digits, then some text(the text I want), empty, one alpha character,
etc in example.

I am not sure I understand the question, but I think this will help.

You can create a named group by enclosing it in paranethsis and add ?<name>.

For example, I have the following Regex pattern in my code
"_(?<WellName>[A-H]\\d{1,2})_"

This is used to capture just the Well Designation (a letter from A-H and
then 1 or 2 digits) from a longer string as long as that pattern is
surrounded by underscores.

Regex.Match("SomeText_B7_MoreText","_(?<WellName>[A-H]\\d{1,2})_").Groups["­WellName"].Value;

Would return "B7" (If I don't have a typo somewhere...)

I am trying to the values of string of text in the sample before. The
ds are for digits and s is for string and string of text is for a
string with more than one or two values. I am trying to use regex and
the .groups method. Please help.

d|d|d|string of text 1||s|s|||dd.dd|ss|string of text
2||||||||||||||||||||||||||string of text 2

I only want string of text1- Hide quoted text -
